Rail Installation
Tighten the rail fixings to the recommended Torque settings - see Appendix 2.
Joining the rail
The stairlift rail is shipped in several pieces. Refer to the installation drawing that all pieces are correct and
marked as per drawing. Check correct number of legs are supplied.
IF THE CARPET ON THE STAIRTREAD IS NOT FULL WIDTH, THEN MAKE THE CUSTOMER
AWARE THAT THE FOOT OF THE LEG WILL BE PUSHED UNDER THE CARPET. IT IS THE
CUSTOMERS RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE A CARPET FITTER CUT THE CARPET TO FIT, OR FIT
AN INLAID PIECE. WE DO NOT CUT CARPET.
MAXIMUM LENGTH OF RAIL.
DO NOT EXCEED 25M, THIS IS THE LONGEST RAIL RECOMMENDED.

SECTION 3
Rail Installation
1Fit the legs (L) to the first sloping section of rail (R) or to the hinged section if fitted, as indicated on the
installation drawing. Insert the screw (S) through the leg clamp (C) and the hole in the top of the leg. Fasten
together with a nut on the screw.
2 Check the angle (A) of the first rail section with the installation drawing. Ensure face of rail is 90˚. If
necessary the legs can be adjusted for height, by screwing the leg up or down in the leg tube, to obtain the
correct angle. See sample drawing.
WHEN INSTALLING, INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL, 90˚ OR 180˚ WRAP ROUND SYSTEMS, IT IS
IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THAT ALL THE RAIL ANGLES AND SECTIONS ARE CORRECT.

Rail Installation
3 Remove screws from protruding sections of top joints.
4Push the rail sections together.
ENSURE THAT THERE IS AT LEAST 180MM CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE WALL STRINGERS (S)
AND THE FRONT OF THE RAILS (R) OR ANY OBSTRUCTION.

SECTION 3
Rail Installation
5Fit the top box countersink screw (C) and grub screw (G).
6Pull the rail sections together by tightening up both countersink screws (C1).
7Expand the top joint box inside the rail sections by tightening up both grub screws (G) – this will give the
joint rigidity.
8Tighten all four countersink screws (C2).
9Check the rail joints are aligned with no gaps. Some small adjustment may be possible by loosening the
joint box and bottom fixing plate and re-aligning the rail sections.
10 Progressively fit the remaining rail sections, check horizontal sections are level and sloping sections are set
at the correct angle as shown on the installation drawing. (The final rail section may have to be fitted after
the carriage has been put onto the rail.)
11 Once the measurements and angles have been checked, secure the feet of the legs to the floor. Re-check
angles etc and adjust as necessary.
12 Lubricate the rack throughout using Interflon Fin Grease (902231) or equivalent.
HORIZONTAL SECTIONS MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN LEVEL. NO NEGATIVE DECLINE.

SECTION 4
Fitting Carriage to Rail
THE CARRIAGE ASSEMBLY AND TRANSFER RAIL WEIGH 43.4 KILOGRAMS (96 POUNDS).
THE INSTALLATION ENGINEER MUST USE SUITABLE SAFE LIFTING PROCEDURES TO
HANDLE THIS WEIGHT.
Whenever possible hold the racked transfer rail (T) to pick up the carriage.
The carriage weight MUST BE SUPPORTED when transferring it onto the
sloping section of rail.
1 Fit the transfer rail (T) and carriage over the joint box. The carriage
may be transferred onto a horizontal section of rail or a sloping
section as shown here. Fit one screw to pull plate.
FITTING CARRIAGE TO RAIL
